This study observed that deleting PTEN in mouse facial motoneurons enhanced peripheral axon regeneration but also led to physiological changes and potential hyperplasia in older mice.

This review explores the role of Eph receptors and ephrins in skin cell processes, discussing their potential for therapeutic targeting in dermatological disorders, but it presents no new research findings.

This study found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, influenced by epithelial and neural factors, indicating a complex interaction in maintaining homeostasis.

This study in adult mice found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in the skin are highly plastic, with significant remodeling in response to epithelial turnover, and that Merkel cells play a role in limiting axonal branching and promoting their maturation.

This study observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in mouse skin, finding that both axons and Merkel cells underwent dynamic remodeling, with their interactions influencing axonal branching and maturation.

This study observed that Merkel cells and their associated somatosensory axons in mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, remodeling dynamically to maintain homeostasis. Axonal branching patterns were notably influenced by Merkel cells, suggesting epithelial-neural interactions play a key role in axonal plasticity and patterning.

In this study, highly dynamic remodeling was observed in mouse somatosensory axons and Merkel cells, indicating that epithelial-neural interactions help maintain homeostatic remodeling, with additional intrinsic neural mechanisms contributing to axonal plasticity.

This study found that upper-bulge epidermal stem cells in mouse hair follicles are specialized for nerve interactions, crucial for forming tactile sensory units, and influence touch responses via EGFL6 and αv integrin pathways.

In this study, upper-bulge epidermal stem cells in mouse hair follicles were shown to play a role in forming tactile sensory units by creating an extracellular matrix that supports nerve interactions.

In this study, researchers found that simple hair clipping in mice induced dynamic plasticity and axogenesis in skin sensory axons, linked to follicular activation and HGF signaling.

This study found that a solution containing 0.5% Camellia japonica placenta extract increased scalp moisture and reduced sebum content, dead keratin, and erythema in adult females, suggesting potential as a scalp treatment.

Touch domes in human skin are complex sensory structures not directly linked to hair.

In this study, researchers found that the glabrous skin of the rat forelimb contains sparse Meissner corpuscles and Merkel complexes, with more slowly adapting afferents in the palm and rapidly adapting afferents in the digit extremity.

This article reviews the role of exosomes in promoting axonal regeneration and discusses recent findings on how exosome-borne molecules might influence the PTEN-mTOR pathway in injured neurons; it reports no new experimental results.
